Ben Cooper - Midnight lyrics

[Verse 1] Your gut says turn away and walk back the way you came That these words are not for those awake I watch your feet step through the fallen leaves And I hear your heart by its broken beat Then I smell the sickness you've got in you And I understand the reason why you came to me And I understand why you're not afraid [Verse 2] You called my name out so I showed my face And the birds in the nest of my hair started fluttering And I held your wrists, bound your hands up with fine sand And told you to trust me as though I were your enemy And I sank my teeth in to your ribs And drew out the blood that had turned on you And left you to find your way back home And I told you to guard our little secret well And to never try and find me again Because the next time you step beyond your walls I'll be gone I'll be gone I'll be gone I'll be gone
